Automated doors with TI mmWave sensors

[CHIME] Hi. Today we're going to be demonstrating Texas Instruments' millimeter wave sensors and their application in automated doors.
Here we have TI's 60-gigahertz single chip sensor the IWR6843 mounted on a door frame. You can see that there are a row of lights separated into three different lanes, with each lane corresponding to its own automated door. You can see that, as a person goes through the door, the light for the corresponding lane goes from red, which is closed, to green, which is open.
Traditional sensing technologies in this application, like IR sensors, have limitations such as the need for multiple sensors, causing false positives, and carrying limited motion information. Here we're showing how millimeter wave addresses these limitations.
Here, you can see how millimeter wave uses velocity [? of ?] position information to open a door quicker for a person who is moving through the door at a higher velocity. Here, you can see how there are no false positives triggered by a person walking parallel to the door, as the intended direction of the person was not through the door. Now, we can see a single sensor operating multiple lanes simultaneously.
TI's 60-gigahertz single chip sensor, the IWR6843, not only addresses these limitations, but also carries benefits such as robustness in all environmental conditions and maintaining privacy. For more information, please visit the link below. Thanks for watching.

Door frame will be set up with IWR6843 sensor and 3 "lanes" on the floor. Sensor detects and shows when a person is walking with intent to go through the door and will display as "open".
